Lord of Secrets - Chapter 72 71. Enlightenment
Turning her head to one side, pretending to be nonchalant, after hearing the news, Gabriela hurriedly left, returned to the hotel and warned the guard not to disturb her, and then returned to the room to change into ordinary clothes. ♦♦ ♦♦
Just an ordinary white men’s shirt and a pair of black linen trousers, which made her look like a working woman.
She looked at the mirror, hesitated for a while, and then cut her golden hair with scissors, leaving short hair at ear level, which looked neat and tidy.
She hid the cut hair, and then she tied the hair behind her head with a rubber band.
Facing the mirror, Gabriela scratched her hair with her hands, and then smoothed it, trying to make herself look more casual. Suddenly, her eyes looked at her chest, and after a few seconds, it was wrapped with several circles of white cloth.
In this way, she looked like a delicate nobleman.
Gabriella then came to the window, observed for a while, and found nothing unusual, so she jumped down from the second floor along the big tree next to her. The balance and physical ability of the “drowning person” allowed her to do this easily.
…
“Miss Gabriella has left!”
“Pay attention to her safety, inform Ruvel, and ask him to give Miss Gabriella some problems, but don’t go too far.”
…
It was still the same tavern.
Gabriella walked to the table, put her hands on the table, and said in a mature, low, neutral voice: “I want to be a cleaner.”
“You?”
The tall, dark man looked at Gabriella, with a hint of inexplicable meaning in his voice, as if he felt that the other party was making fun of him.
“I can’t?” Gabriella asked back.
The man looked outside the door, paused for a while, and then smiled and said, “We don’t hire women, we want laborers, and one gold pound is enough for us to find more beautiful ones than you.”
“Haha…”
There was a burst of laughter around, and someone said, “That’s right, otherwise look at me, one gold pound a month.”
Gallia endured the anger and said calmly, “I am a man, not a woman, your vision is really not good.”
The people around laughed, and one of the fat middle-aged men teased the one who spoke before, “You actually want to sleep with a man!”
The man didn’t care, his eyes were hanging, and he said in a slightly calm tone, “Once the lights are turned off, nothing matters.”
The crew member on the “Black Prince” glanced at her, and then said, “We don’t hire thin people, unless you can prove that you are strong, not like a woman.”
Gallia heard this and slammed her fist on the wooden table, shaking the round-mouthed cup filled with light red diluted Lizim wine to the ground, and the wine spilled all over the floor.
After looking at Gabriella with a little surprise, the man immediately laughed and said, “My name is Ruvel, and from now on you will be our cleaner.”
“Everyone, I will take him to the ‘Black Prince’ first. You can think about it. Who wants to be a cleaner? Wait for me here later.” Ruvel continued to shout to the others.
“Include me.”
At this time, a strong young man said.
Gabriella looked over and saw that the other person had blue hair, like seaweed, messy, no eyebrows, and a pair of eyes that seemed to be covered with a layer of keratin, which looked a bit weird and scary.
Ruvel narrowed his eyes and said, “Why, is ‘Flying Fish’ Stern planning to defect to our ship?”
Stern smiled and said, “No, it’s just that the captain thinks our ship is too broken, so he asked me to take a look at our future warship in advance.”
Ruvel laughed and said, “You’d better find a place on the seabed as your grave.”
Stern didn’t care. He looked around with a cold look in his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, “One gold pound and your life… are a bit overpriced.”
Stern’s threatening words did not cause a fierce response from others. Instead, they fell into silence and drank a bowl of wine quietly.
At this time, Jia Liya stepped forward and taunted, “Your unknown broken ship has not yet arrived in front of the ‘Black Prince’. I’m afraid it will be buried in the belly of the fish.”
The military should investigate her origins. If they can’t find her origins for the time being, they may monitor her, although it is very likely that her identity will be investigated.
But they will not let her get off the ship.
After all, the mission they were carrying out was top secret, and it was very likely that it was Deberting, the pirate king, so they would not do something that would expose themselves just because of a noble lady.
So, she now wanted to make Ruvel feel good about her and say more good things about her, but she didn’t know if this would work for the style of the military.
In this way, she would be less constrained on the ship.
But Gabriella felt that they would change their style to a certain extent by disguising themselves as pirates, and at the same time they would recruit some non-military sailors and the like, so that they would not appear too mysterious, and the outside world would have a certain understanding of them, so as not to attract the interest of the pirate king.
“The people on our ship like handsome men like you very much.” Stern raised his eyebrows and looked at Gabriella, with a threat in his words.
At this time, Ruvel stood up and said, “There is no need to be as tolerant as a dead fish… By the way, what is your name?”
He turned his head and looked at Gabriella after the latter sentence, as if ignoring Stern.
“Aya!” Gabriella said.
“Aya.”
Ruvel read it softly, then he looked at Senter and said: “Let your captain wash his neck and wait for us. No one can covet us and still be alive and kicking.”
Senter silently watched the two people leave and did not choose to take action here.
After all, they were the subordinates of the unknown king, and they should restrain themselves in the land of Felosa, but he was not too afraid. After all, in the coastal areas, few people were willing to offend pirates.
Of course, it was not ruled out that some people were eyeing their bounty and even notifying the military, so he did not dare to stay too long and was ready to leave.
…
Stepping onto the gangway, Galleria felt her steps become more steady.
The first step has been successful.
Carlia was immediately placed in the cabin by Ruvel. She was stunned for a moment, and then asked: “Don’t you need to take an assessment?”
Ruvel laughed and said:
“What kind of job do you think this is? It’s just a cleaner. Can’t I make the decision? Besides, if you are careful, anyone here can chop you down.”
What should I do if I am laughed at? I really want to punch him… Jia Erlia cursed in her heart and looked at Ruvel’s rough skin with a little interest.
However, she looked embarrassed and said:
“I see!”
…
In the hunting ground outside Fuwei Garden, Scarlett was holding a long-barreled shotgun, a little uneasy. This was the first time she had obtained a firearm.
Ubermo was beside her, and then whispered: “Look at the crosshair, and then aim at it, don’t tremble… Yes, just pull the trigger at the end.”
Looking at the wild deer that was eating in her eyes, Scarlett’s hand holding the shotgun did not tremble at all, but she hesitated and did not pull the trigger.
She glanced at Ubermo, her heart gradually calmed down, and then she closed her eyes, and gently turned the metal trigger with her right index finger.
“boom!”
Sijiada looked at the smoke coming out of the gun barrel and the dying struggle of the fallen wild deer. The blood flowed out and soaked in the soil, but her heart was extremely calm.
“Shaping method” is not a panacea.
It’s as if you have been participating with another vision, but your personality, behavior, etc. will eventually change. After all, ordinary people change as the external environment changes.
What’s more, the relationship between that “mask” and her is not completely isolated. It is like a sixth sense or a second personality, and it has a subtle influence on the body.
After all, the secret medicine transforms the body.
Therefore, Sijiada’s heart did not fluctuate much, but a trace of pity and lament occasionally flashed through her mind. Of course, she could choose whether to ignore that subtle instinct.
It’s just that she doesn’t seem to want to choose.
A girl who is good for nothing can only forcefully change herself so that she will not feel inferior.
However, she was a little worried.
If this continues…
After all, the witch’s heart is indifferent. She doesn’t know what it will be like if one day she kills Ubermo with her own hands.
Crazy or indifferent?
No! That’s just because the witch doesn’t have a heart, but I do. Only people who don’t care won’t care. I’ve actually been mentally prepared for a long time…
Isn’t it? Strange deer…
Sigarda glanced at the dead creature in the distance.
For Furnady, she didn’t like hunting, it was a kind of playing with weak lives, but in the face of Ubermore’s request, she still did as he asked.
Rebelina watched all this in silence.
…
In the cemetery.
Horus looked at the increasingly crowded cemetery and sighed in his heart.
The tombkeeper is always calm. He looks at the cold tombstone every night. He has already seen through death and is therefore indifferent.
In just one night, he found that he had realized a lot, but this one seemed a little strange to him.
…
“Ledora, Deir is dead, but you and our children will never come back.
“I should have gone down to be with you and our baby, but you said you wanted me to live.
“I will look at the afterglow of the dusk for you. You once said that it is the boundary between life and death. Only at that time can I touch you…”
…
“Officer Masia, you are a good police officer. It’s a pity that you left us. At that time, my husband was kidnapped. It was you who rescued him from the gangsters.
“If it weren’t for you, Officer Marcia, maybe we would have no future… I wish you can embrace the night and sleep peacefully…
“Isn’t that right, little Nadina.”
“Hey…”
…
“But we should respect death and pay tribute to life!” Horus said with emotion in a dark cabin, listening to the secret words that came from time to time in the cemetery.
He turned to look at the newspaper on the dark table and whispered softly:
“After some time, it’s time for me to set off.
“——This world will change because of me…”
…
“Hello, sir!” Telarim said in a low and ethereal voice.
“Who are you?”
The owner of the house opened the door, looked at the man in front of him who was shrouded in black robes, and asked slightly uneasily.
“Sir, I want to find your wife Ellie. I have something to store with her.” Telarim said gently, as if he were a guest.
“What is it?”
The owner of the house was a little confused.
Terarim smiled and said:
“… It’s life!”
“Ah…”
The owner of the house was about to ask when he was knocked unconscious by Tealim.
“Dingko, what’s wrong with you?”
A doubtful voice came from the house, a little low.
Then Tealim saw a somewhat strong woman with dark skin and thick lips. She saw Dingko lying on the ground and the unknown intruder, but she didn’t run away, but rushed up angrily.
It looked powerful, and the ground was shaking.
Tealim shook his head and threw the seeds in his hand to the other party, still smiling, and said: “Are all the ‘thugs’ so brainless?”
